Awesome documentary and I saw it at a great time, I have been digging on liquipedia to satisfy my oldschool Broodwar nostalgia. Was looking at the results of all the old tournaments like:

(Wiki)

1998 PGL Season 3

And tons of others.

Good watch and thanks for sharing. I think it's a good reminder that Starcraft truly was the 'start' of eSports rise to fame.

The first CPL event in usa was in 1997, a year before SCBW was even released.

Looking forward to watching the documentary, love getting nostalgic about the beginning of scbw esports.

Nice documentary about broodwar. I wonder what is going to happen once all our legends are no longer playing starcraft bw. How is ASL is going to survive without the big names...

Is that going to happen tho? When StarCraft is pretty much always 3rd - 4th most popular game on Afreeca, after LoL and Pubg and Teamfight Tactics, it seems likely that top players can earn their money from streams for a long time to come

That was an awesome and fun documentary. It was so great seeing Boxer, Yellow, Reach, Nada, iloveoov, Nal-ra, and Stork looking back on the old days.

But TBH the most hilarious part was watching the North Korean guy trying to explain that he was playing a "military simulator" and the other Northern Korean guy playing without hotkeys.

Thanks for sharing this!

Also YellOw's "Star Road" has been appearing quite a bit on my recommended on Youtube, shame they're not subbed... Guess it's only my lack of Korean-speaking abilities to blame

Thank god there are subs; Evangelion releases the 3 rebuild movies on YouTube and there aren’t any subs. This will do for now.

Thanks so much for making the subs! I've returned to watching Broodwar after 10 years and it's amazing as ever.

Very cool doc, sorta base-level info but that's to be expected for a 45 minute documentary. So cool to see so much vintage footage (very funny to see young reach being swarmed by fans haha, and those freaking boats). This really just reinvigorates my desire for an in-depth documentary series about the history of Pro BW, following not just the fandom and players but also the meta changes throughout time. I want a Ken Burns BW series lol
